根据短文内容，从短文后面每题所给的四个选项中选择最佳的一项。 Whitebridge was a small lonely village where many old people came to live．Many of them had lots of old furniture（家具），some of which they didn't want to keep．This was because there was not enough room for it．Every Saturday morning they put out what they didn't need and other people came and took it away if they wanted it． Mr and Mrs Morton's children had grown up．The old couple moved to this small village just as many others did．The elderly in this small village were all suffering from loneliness，because they were hard to meet their children． Every Saturday Mr and Mrs Morton had put out a very ugly（丑的）old bear's（熊的） head at the side of their gate，but nobody wanted it．Last Saturday they wrote“I'm very lonely here．”on a piece of paper and put it near the bear's head． After a while，they found there was another bear's head put beside theirs，with another of paper．It said，“I'm lonely，too．” 1．When you visit Whitebridge，you can ． A．find some old furniture at the gate of some small houses every morning B．see many lonely old people lived there C．take away any old furniture D．see a bear's head in front of each house 2．Which of the following is true according to this passage（根据短文）？ A．The Mortons had a lot of bear's heads they didn't need． B．The Mortons were very glad when they found another bear's head beside theirs． C．Both the two bear's heads felt lonely in front of the Morton's gate． D．The ugly bear's head was a kind of furniture． 3．The Mortons wrote the sentence“I'm very lonely here”．It meant ． A．they wanted someone to find another bear's head for it B．they wanted someone to take the bear's head away C．they might suggest（可能暗示）they were lonely in the village D．both B and C 4．Who do you think put another bear's head in front of Mr Morton's house？ A．A young man who made fun of the Mortons． B．The Mortons'next-door neighbour． C．Another old man who decided not to let the Mortons'bear's head alone． D．Another old man whose bear's head was not needed，either． 5．Which of the following do you think is the best title（标题）for this passage？ A．A village for old people B．A place where you can Take Old Furniture Freely C．I am Lonely，Too D．The Ugly Bear's Head 答案与分析： 1B。文章第一自然段第一句：Whitebridge was a small lonely village and old people came and lived there．本题属于直接解答题。 2D。从文章第一自然段我们知道：一些老人有许多因没地方摆放而不想保存的旧家具，因此周六的上午他们便将这些旧家具摆放在自家的门外。再根据第三自然段开头the M ortons的所作可推断出此答案。 3D。从文章第二自然段可知：在这个小村子里的所有老人都很孤独，他们很难与子女见面。the M ortons想以此来表达自己内心的孤独，同时他们也想把这样旧家具处理掉，故选择答案D。 4D。本题可采用排除法：这个村子是以孤寡老人为主的居住群体，故选项A不对：若是他们隔壁的邻居，不可能那么多个星期以后才有此举动，故选项B错：选项C是指另一个老人做的，他决定不让the M ortons'bear's head孤单：选项D是指另外一位老人的旧家具也不需要了。根据短文的中心意思，可判断出D正确。 5C。本题考查的是“找关键句和选标题的能力”。短文的关键句常位于开头和结尾，把握住关键才能对短文有整体或深层理解，所以本文的最后一句话即点题。

C） This is a story made up of eight pictures，but the pictures are in the wrong order．Put them in the right order，according to the pictures and their explanations（解说）． a．Ten minutes later Mrs．Brown couldn't see the sheep．She didn't find it in the village．She could guess who stole it．She began to shout near her house． b．Mr Black has a house at the foot of the hill． It's near to his farm．So he can easily look after his fruit trees and sheep．He works hard．Now he's one of the richest men in the village． c．Mr．Black heard the woman shouting，he didn't mind．But he heard Bill talking with the woman，he hurried out and called out，“Keep quiet．Go back to help your mother！”
d．Bill heard it and came out．He tried to stop the woman．“Don't shout in front of our house！”said the boy．“My father didn't steal your sheep！” e．The farmer has a lot of money，but he wants more．So sometimes he steals something in the village．People know him well．Nobody likes him and he has few friends．
f．One afternoon，on his way to the farm，Mr．Black saw a bag under a tree．He picked it up and found there was some rice in it．He took it home at once． g．Bill understood what his father came out for．He shouted，“Don't worry，Daddy！I won't tell her you tied her sheep under your bed！”
h．At his gate he saw a sheep in front of Mr．Brown's house．He looked around and there was nobody．So he pulled it in．His son Bill saw it．He told the boy not to tell anybody about it． The right order is b→（31）_________→f→（32）_________→（33）_________→d→（34）_________→（35）_________ （D） Answer the questions，according to the passage given． Babies love chocolate and sometimes they also eat the paper around it．My cat enjoys a meal of good，thick paper，old letters，for example．She doesn't like newspapers very much． Of course，the best paper comes from wood．Wood comes from trees，and trees are plants．Vegetables and fruits are plants too，and we eat a lot of them．So can we also eat wood and paper？ Scientists say，“All food comes in some way from plants．”Well，is that true？Animals eat grass and grow fat．Then we eat their meat．Little fish eat little sea-plants；then bigger fish swim along and eat the smaller ones．Chickens eat a lot of grass and give us meat．Think for a minute． What food does not come from plants in some way？ Scientists can do nice things with plants．They can make food just like meat and cheese．And they can make it without the help of animals．It is very good food too．Now they have begun to say，“We make our paper from wood．We can also make food from wood．The next thing is not very difficult．” What is the next thing？Perhaps it is—food from paper．Scientists say，“We can turn paper into food．It will be good，cheap food too， cheaper than meat or fish or eggs．” So please keep your old books and letters．One day，soon，they will be on your plate．There is nothing like a good story for breakfast． 36．Why does the cat enjoy the old letters？ ________________________________________________&&37．What do the scientists think all our food comes from？ ________________________________________________ 38．Do bigger fish have anything to do with（与……有关）plants？Why？ ________________________________________________ 39．Why do scientists make food without the help of animals？ ________________________________________________&&40．What are scientists trying to do，just as the author says？
